FLEXO PRINTING RUBBER ROLLERS

Flexography is the major process used to print on packaging materials. Flexography printing basically prints on LD/HM/PP/Nylon/HDPP/HDPE/Poly/Non-woven/corrugated boxes/disposable cups/tapes and wrappers. The selection of rubber compounds is the key of printing performance in Flexography. All rubber compounds coverings possess unique properties that determine suitable for particular applications.

Flexography uses fast drying inks for printing process and can print on absorbent and non-absorbent substrates that is the reason it is important that the rubber rollers used in these machines are suitable for these kind of printing process.
Some of the characteristics of the Flexography rubber rollers have been highlighted below.

Excellent Chemical resistance:- As this industries uses various types of inks which contains
different types of solvents and chemicals which is used to maintain ink viscosity or flow at the time of printing. Zenith rubber compound has been formulated to withstand such usages.
Hardness stability:- As in all types of rubber roller uses in flexible packaging the Hardness of rubber rollers is the most important factor. Swelling or softening of the compound is restricted and hence maintains the hardness of the roller stability.
Abrasion Resistance:- Zenith has formulated the rubber compound which do not wear out easily despite of use of various solvent and chemical in the inks, there by maintaining its structure.
Longer life of the rubber roller:-As all industries working for cost saving to increase profit of
the company. In this view Zenith formulated the rubber compound which has long run-ability.
Zenith provides all types of rubber rollers for Stack flexo and Drum flexo printing machine in flexography industries.
